“I was just informed,” claims Fabrizio Romano, “that Liverpool has made ‘calls’ to players agents

According to Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool has gotten in touch with the representatives of a few center-back targets and requested to be “informed” of their circumstances.
The Italian downplayed the likely possibility of transactions being finalised this month, but earlier this week he said the Reds are “looking at some opportunities” for that member of Jurgen Klopp’s team during the January transfer window.
In his most recent Daily Briefing for CaughtOffside, the correspondent gave a status check on the happenings at the Anfield giants on Wednesday morning.
Romano stated: “As was previously announced, Liverpool is looking into possible center-back additions. However, this is not a pressing matter, and it is unlikely to happen in January as Liverpool usually prefers to conduct business in the summer.
“Although I don’t currently have a firm name, I was just informed that Liverpool has contacted the agents of a few centre backs to inquire about current circumstances; as of right now, there hasn’t been a formal negotiation.” The issue is that it’s difficult to locate elite players during the January transfer window.
As far as updates go, this is obviously preliminary; at the absolute least, you’d think that all clubs would be throwing out feelers during the January transfer window.
Under FSG’s stewardship, Liverpool has generally acted sensibly in the market, which has frequently irritated many supporters but may ultimately be the best course of action given the Premier League’s recent crackdown on (most) clubs that violate their Profitability and Sustainability Rules.
Everyone knows that the Reds don’t sign players just to sign them; instead, they do it when the right player shows up and the chance to sign them for a fair price arises.
The January transfer window will expire in a little over two weeks, thus LFC has a limited amount of time to bolster Klopp’s roster. However, optimism will not waver until that deadline of 11 p.m. on February 1st is met.

Pedro Neto is the replacement for Mohamed Salah that Jurgen Klopp prioritises.
If Jurgen Klopp is unable to secure some of his other desired targets, Pedro Neto is the perfect substitute for Mohamed Salah.
Fichajes claims that Pedro Neto might move up Jurgen Klopp’s priority list in order to take Mohamed Salah’s spot. Many teams, including Arsenal, are interested in signing the Wolves winger, but Liverpool’s arrival into the race may change things up.
Pedro Neto is what Jurgen Klopp wants.
Given that Pedro Neto is still performing at the greatest level, big clubs may start selecting him. This is especially the case for Wolves’ winger. Despite having lost a portion of the season due to a hamstring issue, his figures indicate that he is still producing well.
Liverpool may be actively considering a number of options to replace Mohamed Salah in the summer, which could be the reason for their interest in Neto. Depending on the system, the Portuguese winger may play on either flank and adds versatility to the team.
According to the article, Klopp believes Kylian Mbappe is the finest option to replace Mohamed Salah, which is why Liverpool is interested in him. However, there are serious questions over whether he would resist a transfer to Real Madrid, and Klopp would prefer Neto if the Frenchman did not end up at Anfield.
The 24-year-old target for Arsenal may get ready for a significant move, but it might not occur until the summer. The Gunners, who abandoned their plans to visit Neto in January, are already preparing an approach. The two biggest teams in the Premier League may compete for the Portuguese winger now that Liverpool is in the running.
Arsenal are also keen on Neto
The 24-year-old winger has long been coveted by Arsenal; Mikel Arteta is said to have made an attempt to sign him in the past. Neto might be a huge addition for the Gunners next summer, as they are still in need of a top-draw forward.
Liverpool is considering him as well, although they have identified a number of other players as Salah’s best alternatives. Saudi Arabia is still interested in the Egyptian, and Al-Hilal is the newest team to enter the contest.
Knowing that Wolves would demand a hefty price, Neto will have no shortage of suitors. Despite the fact that the transfer market has previously seen swift changes, the 24-year-old will not have the opportunity to switch teams in January as Gary O’Neil wants him to stay in the team for the whole of the season.
